140 people were killed in Sao Paulo for two weeks, anarchy and violence.

At least 140 people were killed in the biggest city in South America during the last two weeks in the rising tide of violence. This was announced by the Department of Public Security of Sao Paulo.
Murder in the Brazilian city began to rise sharply in September - a month in which 144 people were killed, according to a department's website, where it is reported that a total of 982 homicides occurred in the city during the first nine months of the year.
The victims included 90 police officers, most of whom were shot in the line of duty.
Official representative of the public security department, who requested anonymity, said the killing of police officers out on the orders of the leaders of an organized crime gang in prison.
In some areas of the city shops and schools were shut earlier last week after rumors circulated to introduce a curfew for criminal gang.
Authorities said that the incarcerated leaders who allegedly imported illegally using mobile phones to organize attacks, coordinate sales of drugs, murder members of a rival gang and purchases of weapons will be moved to the maximum security prison out of state.
